Rosemont Junior High School
The Panther
1973
As we finish our first year in our completed building, I take this
opportunity to congratulate each student for his or her part in this
successful year. May happiness and prosperity follow each of you in
your future.
James E. Vass
Principal
Another year and another milestone
has gone by at Rosemont Junior High
School.
It has been indeed a great pleasure to
be a part of the administrative team
which has been working for your en-
richment and enjoyment. I consider it
my job to assist you with any problems
— my door is always open. Keep up the
good work.

If you wish to see the busiest place in Rosemont Junior High
School, then visit the school office anytime. You'll notice the
phone in constant use, a line of student "visitors" to see Mr.
Williams, parents and business representatives waiting. The
student population therein changes rapidly, each person coming
and going with his or her individual business.
It takes patience, perseverance and steady nerves, but our staff
gets the job done efficiently every day.

Spring of 1972
Model Democratic Convention
On April 17, 1972, the eighth grade classes of Mr. Baise
held a model Democratic Convention in the auditorium. It
looked very much like an actual convention. The party
platform was read, ammended by floor discussion, and then
approved by voice vote. Next came the nominating
speeches, each one followed by noisy demonstration in sup-
port of the candidate. Balloting began during the fifth bell.
Governor Wallace took an early lead, but at the end of
balloting no candidate had sufficient majority. As sixth
bell closed, the Muskie camp conceded in the interests of
party unity, and the nomination went to Senator Mc-
Govern.
Brian Mangum Convention Chairman
Kathy Rickert Convention Vice-Chairperson
Ben Goggin Campaign Manager for Humphrey
Scott Sagester Campaign Manager for McGovern
Ronnie Hughes Campaign Manager for Muskie
Stephen Rosenfeld Campaign Manager for Wallace
Mr. Baise reviews convention procedure before the opening.
Muskie concedes! That means McGovern is nominated !.
Seventh bell — all quiet now.

Performing Chorus
Seventh Grade Chorus
Spring
Choral
Concert
On May 25, 1972, the Rosemont
Junior High School Chorus pre-
sented the annual spring concert.
The chorus performed a variety of
musical pieces, including anthems,
spirituals and popular songs. Piano
accompianists were Mr. Marshall
Ellis, guest Albert Vann and
Student Charles Van Horn. Martha
Rhyme was the guitarist and Mitch
Frazier accompanied on the drums.
Mrs. Linyear was very proud of
her chorus and received a standing
ovation from the parents. Mrs.
Waldin, the Music Department
Head, said the performance was
better than some Senior High
School Groups.

What Happens in a Panther Court
Prosecutor questions defendant John Jones (Opfar).
The judge has called the two attorneys to the front for
warning: "Conduct should be dignified."
On December 7, 1972, Mr. Chambliss' second bell Social
Studies class acted out a court trial concerning the arrest of two
boys, in: "What Should You Do When a Policeman Makes a Mis-
^^^^^^ take'.-'*'
The two boys were accused of running a red light, and
W subsequently for resisting arrest. The boys felt they were in-
nocent, and so they gave the officer a hard time by calling
names, etc.
At the trial one of the defendants was found guilty of running
the red light and of resisting arrest. He got a $50.00 fine. The
other defendant was convicted only of running the red light. All
participants performed well.

In fearless youth the towering hill we've tried,
Mount o'er the crest and seem to tread the sky.
Eternal snows appear already past,
And these first clouds and mountains seem our last.
But these attained we'll tremble to survey
The growing labors of our lengthened way.
The future meets our bright and wandering eyes,
Hills peep o'er hills and Alps and Alps arise!
Ad. — Alexander Pope
